Bramall Hall to get £1m in funding for vital upgrades
By Alasdair Perry 29th May 2026
Bramall Hall will be getting a £1m boost to support 'vital' upgrades to the building.
The funding, which comes from the UK government's Museum Estate and Development Fund, aims to help preserve the building for future generations.
It will cover long‑term protection of the historic building.
It's in addition to a separate £1.6m sum which was awarded to Bramall Hall in 2024 to help fix long-term issues with its roof.
The upgrades aim to allow residents, school groups and visitors from Stockport and beyond to continue exploring its rich history and heritage.
Cllr Dan Oliver, Stockport Council's cabinet member for culture, said: "Bramall Hall is one of Stockport's most important and much‑loved historic landmarks, and this funding is a big boost in helping us protect and enhance it for future generations.
"The funding will support vital upgrades to this nationally significant building, helping to protect its historic fabric while improving access for visitors, families and school groups.
"We're proud to see Bramall Hall recognised as a place of national cultural importance and to continue welcoming people from Stockport and beyond to explore its history."
For those interested in learning more about preservation work at Bramall Hall, there is a 'behind the scenes' event sharing insight into the roof restoration taking place on 28 June from 11am to 4pm.
